NHTSA Complaint #11089185 — 2015 KIA SORENTO

BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR FOR OVER 8 MONTHS. EATS OIL LIKE NO ONES BUSINESS. WHITE SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE EXHAUST. EVERY TIME I RUN THE ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC, IT HAS ALWAYS SAID NO PROBLEMS EXIST. TODAY, MY HUSBAND COMES HOME FROM AN APPOINTMENT, AND TELLS ME THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING REALLY ROUGH, SHAKING THE ENTIRE CAR. WE CHECK THE OIL EVERYDAY AND WE'VE TRIED GOING TO TWO DIFFERENT KIA DEALERS FOR OUR OIL CHANGES, AND THEY NEVER TELL US ANYTHING IS WRONG. NOW, THIS COMES UP TODAY. I DO THE ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC AND IT READS. "POSSIBLE CONDITION(S) WITH YOUR ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM HAS BEEN DETECTED." SCHEDULE A FULL SYSTEM CHECK WITH YOUR NEARBY KIA DEALER SOON. THE CAR SHAKES HORRIBLY. UP UNTIL THIS TIME, NO SHAKING, SOME WHITE EXHAUST WHEN STARTING THE CAR, BUT NO MAJOR PROBLEMS. NO ENGINE LIGHTS ON, UNTIL TODAY. WE HAVE HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON THE VEHICLE. IT EVEN PASSED SMOG TESTING. SO NOW, AFTER READING SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, I WORRIED, I WON'T BE GETTING MY CAR FIXED.
